Why would anyone want to join a successful guild with great members and just principles? Everyone has their reasons to join and stay with the Nomothetes. I do not claim to be able to list these reasons. Much of what we plan for and enjoy happens in good company. Not all of it can be published. We are a very successful guild. The proof is in the result.

If you want to know more about the Nomothetes and the plans we have, I suggest you talk to our members. Each will have a unique story to tell.

Official Notice from the Nomothetes
At the same time as publishing a revised Constititution, we will in the near future be launching our official guild images. There will likely be emblems, drawings and coins. This silver and gold test coin might also be available in bronze, gold, pink gold and an unknown green metal.

We are also working on extending our diplomatic relations. Keep an eye posted here for updates.

Ciao Francesco,

Ci sono quattro italiani nella gilda Nomothetes e ne conosco uno che non fa parte di una gilda. Stai giocando o hai lasciato perdere? Ti posso aiutare, basta contattarmi nel gioco.

Hello Francesco,

There are four italians in the guild Nomothetes and there is also one outside of that guild that I know of. Are you playing or did you abandon all hope? I can help you if you contact me in game.

Odisseo, Emeritus

Official Notice from the Nomothetes
On August 12, 2007, an important guild meeting was held at the Derghir village. In conformity with our Constitution and in the presence of those assembled, I confered upon Mohero the title of Prince. All acclaimed the new Prince of the Nomothetes.

Mohero created seven Minister positions where before there were only three. Along with other promotions, I was given the title of Emeritus. As a retired member of the legislative body, I will continue to assist the Nomothetes with its current and future objectives.

Anyone is more than welcome.  If you visit our guilds website, http://plexus.shacknet.nu/cov/ you will see a chat option in the left menu.  If you click that it will take you to our guild chatroom.  For at least a few hours a day I am there everyday.

Eleven of the Nomothetes have let me know, with great enthusiasm, of their interest to visit the reconstructed city of Vaalnor. I shall try this week or the next to find on chat.

The Survivors of Vaern is one of the most enigmatic guilds. The Vaern Quests look interesting. What items were there to be found?

If any of you are from Italy as the website would indicate, please get in touch with me. Ciao.

The reconstructed city of Vaalnor is the work of a certain genious.

If I understand correctly from your guild website, this runs on a private server.

Some of us in the Nomothetes who are involved in research would like to have a look at it.

Does a right of visit exist?

Official Notice from the Nomothetes
Thank you for the interest expressed in the Nomothetes. As many of you have rightfully expressed, the reason why someone would decide to join us is not at first hand of the greatest evidence. To dissipate some incomprehension, I have made public the First Constitution of the Nomothetes, voted in majority by three Ministers and myself on April 29, 2007.

As our ranks are fast growing, I will elude the question as to why anyone would join. It is true we have remained secret thus far. This has made us grow attached to peaceful activities. The matter of becoming fully public will be of interest to our legislative members in the near future. In the mean time, I and my three Ministers will extend our research activites to diplomatic affairs.

    Nomothetes
    History of Nomethetes
    According to tradition, in the Second Era, Talad and Laanx prayed to Vodùl in order to lure to Yliakum races belonging to other gods. The name of the city, Yliakum, was derived from an inscription found in the Stone Labyrinths. The ancestors of the first Nomothetes come from a distant land in the Ionian Sea. They were lured to Yliakum by a warm wind that brought to them the melodic and enchanting prayer of Talad and Laanx. These ancestors have left a stone tablet with an inscription in their alphabet: νομοθέτης. It is widely held that this word means legislators, those who give the law. The original laws from those who came from Ionia have not survived in any manuscript form. However the harmony of the prayer that lured those from Ionia is still played today and it's air played with musical instruments.

    Histoire des Nomethetes
    Selon la tradition, à la deuxième ère, Talad and Laanx prièrent à Vodùl afin d'attirer vers les terres de Yliakum des peuples qui vivaient sous le regard d'autres dieux. Le nom Yliakum vient d'une inscription trouvée dans les labyrinthes creusés dans la pierre. Les ancêtres des premiers Nomothetes sont venus d'une terre lointaine qui se trouve en un lieu incertain de la mer ionienne. Ils virent à Yliakum attirés comme ils le furent par un vent doux qui portait avec lui la prière mélodique de Talad et Laanx. Ces ancêtres laissèrent une tablette sur laquelle est inscrit : νομοθέτης. Plusieurs soutiennent que ce mot veut dire législateurs, ceux qui donnent la loi. Les lois d'origine, celle des ioniens, n'ont survécu en aucune forme manuscrite. Par contre, l'harmonie de la prière qui autrefois attira les ioniens vers ces terres est joué sur des instruments par les musiciens.

    Die Geschichte der Nomotheten
    Gemäß der Tradition beteten Talad und Laanx in der zweiten Ära zu Vodùl, um andere Rassen, welche anderen Göttern angehörten, nach Yliakum zu locken. Der Name der Stadt, Yliakum, wurde von einer in den Steinlabyrinthen gefundenen Inschrift abgeleitet. Die Vorfahren der ersten Nomotheten kamen von einem entfernten Land im ionianischem Meer. Sie wurden durch einen warmen Wind nach Yliakum geführt, welcher ihnen ebenfalls die melodische und zauberhafte Botschaft von Talad und Laanx überbrachte. Diese Vorfahren hatten eine kleine Steinplatte mit der Inschrift "νομοθέτης" zurückgelassen. Es ist weitgehend bekannt, dass dieses Wort "Legislatoren" bedeutet, das sind jene Personen, die die Gesetze geben. Die Originalgesetze von denen, die von Ionia gekommen waren, gingen verloren. Dennoch... die Harmonie der Botschaft, welche die Vorfahren von Ionia nach Yliakum geführt hat wird auch heute noch verkündet.

    First Constitution of the Nomothetes

    Enacted by a vote of the Prince, Ministers, Aristocrats and Emeriti. The authority of the presently enacted constitution is second to that of revealed Divine Law.

    Principles
    • The Nomothetes is a non-hereditary republican Principality.
    • Positions are open to all in equal opportunity.
    • All benefit from natural resources according to Natural Law.
    • The symbol of the Nomothetes is the inscription found on the stone tablet.
    • Those who contract to the present Constitution are members of the Nomothetes.

    Positions
    Public legislators:
    • Prince
    • Minister
    • Aristocrat

    Retired legislators:
    • Emeritus

    Intermediary body:
    • Elite Swordman
    • Elite Tradesman
    • Swordman
    • Tradesman

    Initial position:
    • Populace

    Descriptions of positions
    The populace is the position of each newly contracted member. They will choose to become either a Tradesman or a Swordsman. This does not exclude a Tradesman from fighting just as it does not exclude a Swordsman from trading.

    Elite Tradesmen and Tradesmen are also merchants. Their virtue is temperance. Their economic activites are conditioned to the Economic charter.

    Elite Swordsmen and Swordsmen compose the militia. They execute the orders of the legislators and are armed for the defence of the Principality. Their virtue is courage.

    Both Elite levels, Elite Tradesman and Elite Swordsman are in charge of training the Tradesmen and the Swordsmen respectively. The Elite levels decide on an educational plan for their apprentices. These four levels will be known as the Intermediary body. Although they hold legislative powers over their trade, they do not over the political organisation of the Nomothetes.

    Aristocrats will execute the orders of the Ministers, the Ministers those of the Prince. The Constitution prevents possible future forms of despotism, by seperating legislative and executive powers. The Prince, Ministers and Aristocrats are in charge of informing and taking care of the Populace.

    The Emeriti will be allowed to retire from active legislative functions and work on their skills or complete a mission. In the absence of the Prince, the Emeriti have the highest position in the Nomothetes. Litigation between two or more members of the Emeriti is resolved by a simple majority vote.

    Points system
    The Prince, Minister and Aristocrats will be in charge of evaluating the progress of both the Elite levels and that of the Populace. The Elite levels will be in charge of evaluation the progress of the Tradesmen and Swordsmen.

    In order to do so, an informal points system is enacted. This system will serve as a memory, a way to remind ourselves of the good things done. After a promotion, the number of points is zero.

    Economic charter
    Economic transactions of those skilled in trades are subject to no tax.
